Entirely to many syllables in New Or-leans Pe-li-cans


Not this shite again.

I've already listed all of the teams in the NBA, NFL, and MLB that have 3 or more syllables like Pelicans. It works, and will work for us too. Deal with it.

Can't go wrong with extremely generic.


If you want to appeal to the biggest number, generic is the way to do it.Its extremely hard to be unique and appeal to the masses

Yes, better than what we have, but I would rather Sinners.

I don't think it's appropriate to talk about killer instinct when discussing co-ed softball.

No need to buy a new Pelicans shirt for the game when half of your closet fits the color scheme...

Nearly every sports team uses some form of red and blue. Lame 'point' you made there.

Hence the use of the term generic

My point stands. Your ability to comprehend it is in question.

It wasn't my first choice but I am okay with it as long as we have a team. That's the most important thing to me.

Lol I got your point. 'The colors are so generic that you dont need to buy a Pelicans shirt'. Your 'point' is lame and flawed because as I said, most sports teams use some form of red and blue.

If your reasoning was valid, hardly anyone would own sports clothing unless their teams' colors were yellow or green for example.

Because it's clearly all or nothing. There can be no effects that are not direct binary products.

Just using your own logic against you bud.

Could using "generic" colors POSSIBLY impact merchandise sales compared to using unique colors? Maybe. That's not what you said though.

Hate the name. Why didn't they go with "Brass"? That would have been perfect.....

No, it's not what I "said," it's what I implied. That's the part that you are having trouble comprehending, apparently.
